tracing: Kill the unbalanced tr->ref++ in tracing_buffers_open()
commit e70e78e3c83b536730e31231dd9b979768d8df3c upstream. tracing_buffers_open() does trace_array_get() and then it wrongly inrcements tr->ref again under trace_types_lock. This means that every caller leaks trace_array: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/ # mkdir instances/X # true < instances/X/per_cpu/cpu0/trace_pipe_raw # rmdir instances/X rmdir: failed to remove `instances/X': Device or resource busy Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130719153644.GA18899@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
